The third weekend in August has developed into one of the most anticipated and best attended events in Decatur County, all because of our community’s rich agricultural legacy. 

This year will be the 34th annual Greensburg Power of the Past. The Greensburg Power of the Past Club is a non-profit organization, founded in 1989. Power of the Past is well known for a variety of things, but their primary focus is to educate members and the community of the historical, technical, and social contributions and impact of these items of the past.


Power of the Past
 

Yearly, tractors and equipment 40 years or older are line up proudly in the field to show off the beauty of  generational machinery. There is not a better time to see a variety of antique equipment than at the local Greensburg Power of the Past. The machinery consists of plows, disks, combines, planters, cultivators, and many more.
